Celebrity couple invites 900 guests to wedding

Lee Byung-hun and Lee Min-jung

Actor Lee Byung-hun of the movie “Red 2” and actress Lee Min-jung of the SBS drama “All About My Romance” will have a relatively small wedding compared to other celebrity couples, said the actor’s agency yesterday, according to local media reports.

The wedding ceremony, scheduled to happen on Sept. 10, will be closed to the public.

The couple has invited around 900 guests, about half the number other celebrities typically invite to their weddings, including entertainer Park Kyung-rim who invited 2,000 guests to her wedding back in 2007.

“Thank you for sending your blessings to the two who have met their life partners and will create a happy future together,” said the actor’s agency, BH Entertainment.

The couple will have a press conference at 3 p.m., prior to their wedding at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Hannam-dong, central Seoul, to share more about their honeymoon plans and future together.
